Wow, we can’t believe we are saying this, but does anyone want to smell like a baby? Yeah, although it sounds weird, we have to admit that baby powder does smell kinda good. What! It’s true! Tell us that you haven’t tried using baby powder that wasn’t yours. We’re looking at all you people who had younger siblings growing up, and don’t lie! It’s odd, but when people are questioned about what their favourite scent is, most will actually mention baby powder! We’re guessing it’s because the scent of baby powder is nostalgic and doesn’t differ from male or female.

It’s the type of scent that’s odd in the way the smell of freshly cut grass, petrol or even the smell after it rains is. Due to it being such a nostalgic and popular scent, baby powder scented perfumes have hit the market! So, you can stop rubbing baby powder all over your body and get ahold of these Beauty Insider recommended baby powder scented perfumes instead!

Why Baby Powder?

Whether you are male or female, you’ve definitely been padded down with baby powder when you were a baby. That is why the smell is so nostalgic, as it brings back memories of your childhood! What’s more, is that baby powder has a delicate and soft scent that reminds of being clean or stepping fresh out of the shower. Since the smell of baby powder isn’t exactly dominating, it has gained enough popularity in the fragrance world to become its own niche! So, ladies and gentlemen, here are some perfumes and colognes that smell like baby powder.
